Pink to make the boys wink

Today Janet posted this scan of the pair I sent her, so I thought I would add it here. On the left is a simple collage of recycled greeting card with the addition of a wire word made with the help of a jig and attached with a brad. The second is a little more intricate. Graduated pink card has an overlay of white vellum, embossed and cut into a curvy swirl. On top of this a pink vellum heart with bow, and punched pink vellum blossoms, their centres embossed from behind and attached with silicone to keep the centres raised. Very saccherine, but then pink so often is, isn't it? This was designed to be seen in a horizontal orientation, but I'm too idle to open PS just to crop and rotate Janet's scan, so flop your head over to the left and you will get the idea.
